I agree with AZ Jane. I am really getting tired of the poor spelling, rotten grammar and misuse of words in publications we pay for. Spell check is fine, but limited. Where are the editors?

If our newspaper is any sign, there is NO proofreading any more--any where! I am a former English teacher and proof reader for folks in the PhD. Department. Because people text so much and are on their phones so much, we may just as well kiss good writing goodbye. A sad commentary on today's world.

I am a former proofreader for the yellow pages. If we made a mistake it could put a business "out of business". It grates on me to be reading a book and find a mis-spelled word or a different word altogether. But, that's the way it is now.
